Gather one, gather all for the ULTIMATE battle competition! It's time to pit participant against participant and decide who reigns supreme. Will the Good save the day, or will we succumb to the darkness of Evil?

A battle of such proportions must be fought on multiple fronts, so for the first time ever, we're featuring multiple ways to win! You can enter as a mapper, an artist or a developer - or all three. Increase your chance of winning by participating in mini challenges, as we tally points for either side. The winning side will be crowned ruler supreme and win incredible prizes!

To Participate:

- Pick a Team: Good or Evil and grab your badge:





Team Good: Team Evil: [img=http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/ff267/lunarea_album/Degica/team-evil_zps8mpfxwob.png]- Enter one or more challenges.

- Prepare for surprises...

- Have fun!

[B]Mapping Challenge:[/B]

You have an opportunity to create maps for your team.

- Maps must be in screenshot format, and can be of any size.

- Maps can be created using any of the materials you find on the forums here, as well as any resource packs in our store.

- If you use material other than the RTP, please cite your sources.

- The theme of your maps should be something that helps your team - make beautiful or epic maps that show why your team is better or make maps that show why the opposing team can't be trusted.

[B]Mini-Game Challenge:[/B]

You have an opportunity to create puzzles or mini-games for your team:

- Mini-games should be in a downloadable project.

- If you are using store resources or Member+ exclusives, please make sure your project is encrypted (you may send an un-encrypted copy to me and I will distribute it to the judges).

- If you use material other than the RTP, please cite your sources.

[B]Resource Challenge:[/B]

You have an opportunity to create resources to help your team:

- You can create any resource - script, audio or graphical.

- Create something awesome to inspire and motivate your team.

[COLOR=#ee82ee][SIZE=18px][B]FAQ:[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[I]Can I use RMMV for this challenge:[/I]

Yes! But MV only releases next week, so figure out ways to help your team in the meantime.

[I]What are the prizes?[/I]

A surprise! For now at least..........

[I]Do the maps have to be cohesive to make a certain world? Do we work as a team or are we riding solo?[/I]

That's up to your team. Both group efforts and individual efforts count toward your goal.

[I]Can it be an in-editor screenshot for the map, or does it have to be in-game?[/I]

Editor is fine.

[I]Is each participant limited to creating a single resource?[/I]

You can create more than one!

[I]Should the entries, most specifically the maps and resources be exclusively made for the contest or may I use them in my game also?[/I]

It must be a map and resource made for the contest (so, not started in advance), but you can use them elsewhere after.

[I]If I use a map submitted by a team member, do I have to use it as-is, or can I make some mods to it (remove NPCs, change an area the way I need it for my minigame)?[/I]

You can modify them to suit your mini-game.

[COLOR=#a9a9a9][SIZE=18px][B]NEWS:[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[COLOR=#ff0000][B][SIZE=18px]WINNER:[/COLOR][/B][/SIZE]

[I]Morning rises softly as the crowd gathers together to watch Team Good crowned for their achievements. With cheer all around, team Good participants step onto a hastily-constructed stage to line up for prizes and cake. They are closely followed by Team Evil, who seems in good spirits despite their loss. Friendly handshakes, hugs and compliments fly around as the two teams celebrate together.[/I]

[I]But just as the cooks are about to wheel in a giant cake, a cackling rises through the air...[/I]

Chaos Master Snix appears, his clothing tattered and dirty with crumbs.

"How fun! How fun! You played along with my game... But why stop now? Let's keep it going!"

In one fell swoop, Snix grabs Team Good's prizes and back-flips on top of the cake. The cake crumbles under his weight, utterly destroyed.

"I'll be taking these! Goodbye! Goodbye!

See you at Christmas!"
